Suppose you drop paperclips into an open cart rolling along a straight horizontal track with negligible friction. As a result of the accumulating paper clips, explain whether the momentum and kinetic energy increase, decrease, or stay the same.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Stay the same

Explanation:

Since, friction is negligible:

Initial Momentum = Final Momentum

Initial KE = Final KE

m1 * v1 = m2 * v2

When m increases v decreases.
